The Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany

February 1, 2026

We're thankful you've come here to watch our service and to worship the one true God!

This was another exciting Sunday at Pilgrim Lutheran Church!  We've returned to our regular Sunday schedule, starting with Adult Bible class at 9:15 am and then our 10:30 am Worship service.  Afterward, we gathered for food and conversations, while the children enjoyed Sunday School.  These classes are full of activities and teaching, so the children learn how much God loves them!

If you live in the Burton area, please consider joining us on Sunday mornings!  Anyone can watch our services live on Facebook or on Pilgrim's website.

Here is information about this worship service:

SCRIPTURE READINGS

  Old Testament:  Micah 6:1–8

               Psalm:  Psalm 15

              Epistle:  1 Corinthians 1:18–31

              Gospel:  Matthew 5:1–12

THEME FOR WORSHIP

Today Micah reveals a haunting dialog between the LORD and His people.  The LORD indicts our sinfulness, we ask, “What can we do?” and the LORD gives us a simple reply.  But we can’t do what the LORD requires!  So we move on to the well-known Beatitudes in Matthew’s written gospel.  But wait, this looks like a list of “do this and you’ll be blessed in this way” statements.  But again, we can’t do what the LORD requires!  Is this really the LORD’s only epiphany for you and me today?
